I am highly interested in this thread as I am having a lot of battery/audio related concerns lately. Looking forward to hearing from other people.
While were at it, can someone sell me on the idea of the Genesis vs something like the Keyline 300A Dual Battery kit? Its about $500 less right now...
Not to be pedantic, but 22-14 =/= 6.... 8 years, 2922 days(including leap year), closer to ~200 miles a day, assuming he didnt buy the 2014 model in 2013 calendar year.
I didnt click the link, but ~200 miles a day doesnt seem too crazy if he is a delivery driver. Thats basically 25-30 miles...
The Bully/Planet Audio dual amp set up isnt working like I hoped. I have a couple different voltage monitors and its killing my battery/overworking my alternator. When cranked up, it was dropping me down below 12v. I unhooked it and the battery was back to a consistent 14.5-14.7 all day long...
Nice bike. I am looking at getting a licenses and use motorcycles to scratch my "new vehicle every few years" itch. Gladiator isnt going anywhere. Well, unless its replaced with another Gladiator, eventually.
It took me 2 days to drive from North TENN, to ST Louis to pick up parts off another member, then to drive home to ATX. It cost me $100 for a night at a holiday in, ~$250 for a one way plane ticket if you cant drive (I drove), and lets say you have to use 1 vacay day. Add in a little extra for...
I feel like you are discussing a different point, which is, when negotiating trade ins when buying a new vehicle, there is only one question to ask: "after everything is done, if I drove to my bank, what is the number I have to tell them for financing". Then you are encompassing all the BS...
It almost sounds like you are advocating being an uninformed buyer as opposed to being informed. If it wasnt for this forum and people posting prices for stuff, I would have easily spent ~$10-15k more on my gladiator by buying in Austin ($5-10k dealer mark up) as opposed to Tenn (8% below...
As far as I know, there is no manual outside of the installation guide. I have asked IA to come answer the questions in this thread.
Film is still on because I havent had a chance to finish the install. I quickly threw everything together last weekend, but need to finish working on the wiring...
I paid 8% (7%?) under invoice, whatever Gupton was doing. At that time, Gladiators in Austin were selling for ~$10k over MSRP. And, as I mentioned, I have put a lot of stuff into the Jeep, so it does make it hard to comp. Ive replaced the entire audio system with a huge upgrade, put on a lift...
Thats crazy. My JT turns 1 in a couple days, I just ran the KBB and its resale is *up* almost $4K in trade in, its up $7k in 3rd party and price comping it to Autotrader the closest dealership with the most similar model is selling for $14k more than I paid.
I am certain if I sold today I...
Thanks for this. I mentioned in another thread that my least favorite part of the JT was the throttle response. Not the performance, the vehicle is fine, but how "loose" the pedal felt. IE - the foot travel to vroom vroom ratio was annoyingly bad. The PC fixed that 100%. It now feels like a...
I dont get the gripe? I have used the JT several times to move stuff I would never want to put in the "trunk of a car" or where my "useless back seats" are. Just yesterday I had a 100 gallon cooler, a tool box, a bunch of other boxes of stuff and a butt in every seat. You cant do that in...
Multiple F150's, and a 2021 Dodge Ram, were before the Gladiator. I will never go back to a truck that doesnt have removable doors/top again. Its a game changer. The Ram is basically a big luxury car with a bed. The Jeep is something... different. I dunno, it hits the ol' testosterone a lil...
I use spotify 99% of the time. Dont really use anything else. Not sure why you couldnt get an XM app and hotspot, or a USB or AUX XM device and connect it.
